The problem it solves

Pulling last week's Shopify numbers together for a status update takes time you do not have, and by the time you compile it the information already feels stale. Your team ends up guessing at how sales are trending instead of seeing it clearly.

Who it fits

A Shopify store owner or operations lead who wants a regular pulse on sales without pulling reports by hand.

How it works

  1. Runs automatically once a week on a schedule
  2. Pulls all Shopify orders from the past week
  3. Calculates the total sales value
  4. Saves the numbers to Google Sheets
  5. Posts a summary notification in Slack
What you get

Sales trends you see without pulling a report

Your weekly Shopify sales get totaled automatically and posted straight to a spreadsheet and your Slack channel.

What you get

A weekly sales total saved to a spreadsheet and a summary message in Slack.

What you need

A Shopify account, a Google Sheets account, and a Slack workspace.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
